To be honnest, that was really awesome thank you very much. We felt like in a giant hotel suit, everything was perfectly clean, breakfast was ready, nothing was wrong. At the same time, it felt really human, we had a lot of instructions about where to find everything we could need in the neighbourhood (supermarket, restaurants, bars...).

It was our first time with Airbnb and we were lucky to stay at Luca's place. He was a great host, very welcoming and friendly and eager to tell us about the region, the city but also himself. During our stay he provided us with everything we needed and even took us to Florence with his car. The apartment is located right in the center and within easy reach of the train station. It's newly renovated so everything is nice and clean! Overall we were really happy and would stay there again.

We didn't get to meet Mateo in person, only his mother and she was a very welcoming and a very sweet person. The only problem was that we (me and my boyfriend) don't speak Italian (just the basics) and she didn't speak English, so it was a little bit difficult the communication between us, but nothing that we couldn't handle. Apart from that, the room fits perfectly the description and it was easy to reach the train station to go to Firenze. We definitely recommend the place!

The place is great, very clean and comfortable. They have a big living room with balcony if you smoke. There is a bar next to the house with excellent service, the town is very quite. Is a great place to rest and continue travel. The service is just perfect they are very nice people! We loved to stay there.

We were the lucky first to stay at Lorenzo's apartment. It was fantastic. A great layout with a well outfitted kitchen, comfortable bedroom space, and sweet little bathroom. The location is nice too - within walking distance of the piazza, coffee shops, restaurants, and a couple of grocery stores. Lorenzo was a pleasure to visit with and was attentive to any of our needs or questions. Any time we make it back to San Giovanni, we will definitely try to stay again.

The apartment included everything you need to cook, to clean up .. We had a great stay there and it's really near the center of s. Giovanni, and only 30 minutes by train to Florence :) The contact to Tommaso was always nice and informing, we met his mother two times, she brought us from the station to the apartment and was really nice all the time too. All in all we felt very comfortable and welcome.

I had a nice stay at the apartment :) it had all the amenities that you needed and was close to the centre of the town. Tommaso's mother was so sweet and helpful, she was always making sure I had everything I needed and was comfy.

Such a gorgeous property in the little town of San Giovanni. Very closely located to the Chianti, Siena and Montepulciano wine regions. Serena was an incredible host and her place exceeded our already high expectations. So beautifully decorated and secluded. Definitely recommend this place, and will be back in the future for a longer stay myself

Farmhouse renovated in an original and tasteful way. Perfect for a family or two couples like us. We were not able to enjoy the pool due to the weather but outside very nice and perfect for the summer evenings. Serena welcomes you with a smile and suggests you the best addresses of the corner.

Serena's place is wonderful. It is just enough in the countryside to feel secluded but close enough to town to have anything you need in just a few minutes. The home was great and comfortable and beautiful and sits on a beautiful property that is kept up well. The house is not a far drive from Florence and is right in the heart of Chianti.

The stay was great! After time spent in Florence being able to reach a villa with a private pool by only a short train trip was very welcome. The local town was vibrant and attractive with shops and restaurants. We were greeted warmly with food and drink waiting for us which was a pleasant surprise. The property was very clean, well presented and fully equipped with everything needed for our stay. Serena was a brilliant host and could easily be contacted if we had an questions. I would recommend staying here for a relaxing holiday or as a base for exploring the surrounding areas.

This little restored barn and surrounding pool and gardens was a little gem. The hosts have clearly put their heart and soul into making this a cozy and comfortable retreat. Upon arrival we were greeted by Serena who was kind and helpful. She spoke English and was able to give us directions and advise on visiting a few local wineries. Unfortunately, I have sever asthma and am highly allergic to mold and mildew. Although the place looked spotless the basement where the bedroom and bathroom are located had a very heavy smell. Sadly we ended up having to leave the next day, although we had planned to stay for three, and rent an additional place back in Florence. My family, none of who have any allergies, had absolutely no problems being in the house. As it turned out, we ended up staying the night in Florence but driving back down (45 minutes) to spend the day at the pool. It was just what we needed after several long days of sightseeing and walking the streets of Florence. It is extremely private and a very accessible location.

Rail and main bus and coach stations are at a very short walking distance (about 2 mins), making this location the perfect accommodation for either holidays and business travels.

We enjoyed our stay at Sarah's place. The apartment was very clean. The walk from the train station is 20 minutes. She had a lot of useful information such as train times, things to do (tours etc), food recommendations. We had full access to the kitchen and were able to do laundry with lots of space to hang it to dry. Overall our experience was amazing at Sarah's place, she is always available if you need any help.

The house sits on a hill surrounded by stunning countryside but not far from the town, San Giovanni Valdarno is about 3 km away but there is a cycle route from the house to the town which is off road, safe and peaceful. The train station is in the town (3 km) and the highway is about 7 km away.

The place is really lovely with Tuscan countryside feeling. Enrica and her family were very welcoming, and the place is exactly as shown in the pictures. Especially we enjoyed the big kitchen that allowed us to cook our meals and enjoy them on the outside. The barbeque facility is a definite plus, and so was the swimming pool that remained sufficiently cool regardless of the hot weather to be able to refresh during the days. The location is good for exploring Tuscany including Florence, Siena and Chianti region. With the center of San Giovanni Valdarno some 3 km away, you have a short drive to grocery stores and bakery. If you're looking for a place to stay in the Tuscan countryside with an option to explore Tuscany by car, this is definitely it. I recommend the place. We were three friends travelling, but I would recommend the place for families as well. I had thought that June evenings sound be too hot for mosquitos, but was wrong. Luckily we had some insect repellent with us, and recommend bringing some with you if you usually suffer from the bites.

Overall we had a lovely stay. We got a warm welcome, and the place is a charming as in the photos. The upkeep of the property is amazing. Enrica and her family were great, and you could really feel they made a great effort make us feel home and welcome. We got from them everything we needed for our 10 months-old baby. We had our privacy, but anything we needed they were there in seconds to help out. Bare in mind that some things like toilet paper, extra towels and dish soap are not included. The town itself is nice, with all the facilities you need close to home, and about 50 min drive to other locations (that interested us... :) )
